Billy Don't Be A Hero--Paper Lace
AmD
The marchin' band came down along main street
G
The soldier blues fell in behind
AmD
I looked across and there I saw Billy
EmG
Waiting to go and join the line
AmD
And with her head upon his shoulder
AmD
His young and lovely fiancee
AmD
From where I stood I saw she was cryin'
AmD
And through her tears I heard her say
GAm
Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Am7G
Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
GG7
And as Billy started to go,
AmCm
She said keep your pretty head low
GDG
Billy, don't be hero, come back to me.
AmD
The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside
G
The battle raging all around
AmD
The sargeant cried, "We've got to hang on boys!"
EmG
We've got to hold this piece of ground
AmD
I need a volunteer to ride up,
AmD
And bring us back some extra men,
AmD
And Billy's hand was up in a moment
AmDD7
Forgettin' all the words she said...she said
CHORUS
AmD
I heard his fiancee got a letter
G
That told how Billy died that day
AmD
The letter said that he was a hero
EmG
She should be proud he died that way
EmDG
I heard she threw the letter away
